Ice is good for inflammation if you use it 20 minutes off and 20 minutes on.

I had revision to rny 2 weeks and getting some pretty bad back pain. I am using heating pad at night with no issues.

Did you guys know that you can still get stones in your bile duct after having gallbladder removed? I had mine out more than20 years ago. My GI recently told me of this.

Matter of fact he said it is likely after about twenty years.

Hello, hope you are feeling better. I had my gastric sleeve done on 09/12/19. I had same issue. Went to a chiropractor and said it was muscle spasms and got dome some lidocaine Patches and massages. Feel like new again. [emoji1]

I stopped with the heating pad all together i feel so much better i got slight to no soreness at all im doing well thank you


So I’m a week out of surgery and I use my heating pad constantly on the large incision area, right/middle belly area. It’s the only area that still aches when I twist, turn, move. Heating pads are bad for this?

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
